What is your DVR conflict this fall?
 

I was looking at next week and I see another huge scheduling conflict with shows I want to watch. What is yours?

Tuesday night at 10/9 is going to suck for me. There is Boston Legal, L&O:SVU, Smith and Nip/Tuck, and I only have a 2-tuner DVR. nip/tuck will get picked up at the 11/10:00 slot, so that leaves 3, of which BL is a lock. I may try Smith the first week and if it is good it will be kept.

I think this will be the only slot that I will have conflicts, until Sunday night at 9/8 when Desperate Housewives, Family Guy, The Wire (or other HBO shows) and Sunday night football. But this year with On Demand showing up a week early and The Wire still not in HD that might make Sunday easier.

Mine is Thursdays at 7 CST:

-Smallville (just caught up on DVDs and will be watching "live" for the first time)
-Survivor
-My Name is Earl/The Office
-Ugly Betty (wanted to give it a try)

So I'm probably going to record Smallville and Earl/Office in HD, and Survivor in SD. Ugly Betty is probably not going to happen for me, since I've gotta have at least 1 tuner available for other things, like sports.

Not sure if these conflict, I guess I need to double check before next week, but every show I watch except for Lost(well, Scrubs & 24, but those won't start for a while) is on Thursdays. I think I am good, I think at most two of these are on at a time.

Smallville
the Office/ Earl
Grey's Anatomy
C.S.I.
E.R.

I'm just glad there are now only 5 main TV networks (plus the occasional FX show to records like Nip/Tuck, Shield). I have the 3 ReplayTVs, so I'll probably have to employ my VCR every now and again starting next week when the real fall TV season starts. It's going to be rough in the early goings this season.

I'm worried about Monday, not sure what time Heroes will be on.
Heroes
Prisonbreak
How I met your mother
King of Queens.

9 eastern

The new 10pm shows save me. The most I have at the same time is 2 and that is out of 20 shows. I also expect to whittle the 20 down and add some unexpected ones.

The problem days for me are Sundays, Mondays and Thursdays but lucky for me, my cable company has timeshifting and I will be able to resolve my conflicts with it.

Wednesday 9:00pm for us.

but I decided to record the show I watch w/o hubby (CSI NY) in the bedroom instead of den.

Sundays will be easy for me as Sopranos and Entourage are no longer on, so I will be watching Desperate Housewives.

I will probably give a pass to Heroes until it gets yankes and to Kidnapped, My Name Is Earl, and The Office.

Tuesday:
NCIS and House

Wednesday:
Jericho and Bones

Thursday:
Smallville and The Office

Friday:
Numb3rs and Battlestar... no, wait, recording that at my sis in law's place...

Tuesday at 9 is the only major conflict:
Veronica Mars
The Unit
L&O: CI

Since I only watch the Noth CI episodes I'll just have to miss The Unit every other week.

Nothing anymore since I get the new DirecTV HR200-250 on Oct. 6th. Now I just need to pick up another HDTV....

The fact that I don't have a DVR anymore. :(

None, I have a dual tuner TiVo and a VCR, I really wont even need that much, but even if I do need to watch another show at the same time as those are recording, I can still watch something in real time with commercials, so there's no real conflicts... If it does ever come to that, I may have to come to the realization that I do in fact watch too much television.

I have 2 seperate dual tuners, so I can record 4 or record 3 and watch something else live. Pretty much eliminates all of my conflicts.

No need to bother your sister-in-law at all. On Oct 6, you have a conflict when BSG premieres with a 2 hr episode from 9:00 pm ET to 11:00 pm ET. However that 2 hr episode repeats an hour later at midnight ET-ends at 2:00 am ET so you can tape it then. After Oct 6, BSG is shown at 9:00 pm ET (with the midnight replay) so no conflicts at all.

If anyone has a conflict involving Heroes (9:00 pm ET-Mondays on NBC) and can wait a few days - its being reshown on Sci-Fi Friday evenings at 7:00 pm ET.

LB...

3 DirecTiVos, 6 active tuners, over 200 hours (modified) recording capacity
Local network affiliates (ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, CW, PBS)
NY & LA distant network affiliates (ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox)

Conflicts ? I'd llike to see 'em try :D

Nice to know about Heroes, but it won't be in HD on Sci-Fi, though.

I live in the dorms so I have an oldfashioned DVR - a cable splitter, lol... and really my only conflict is on thursday... but i've decided to watch channel 7, and netflix the dvds to smallville/supernatural/the oc

woohoo!!! another tv recording freak. :D

with 2 Dual tuner DTivos, my DVD recorder with an HDD(and TV Guide Plus), and my HTPC(dual 250GB HDDs) I'm pretty good on this front. I'm planning on upgrading to a dual tuner card for the HTPC soon just in case as well. I can hold around 475Hrs(at best quality) total between them all. I think I'm ready for now. :)

I have 3 dual tuner Tivos, but I consider any time slot with 3 or more shows to be a conflict because then I have to juggle where I record and watch my shows which can sometimes be a hassle.

So my 3-way ties this season are:

* (new shows I am sampling and could be dropped)

Monday 8pm
The Class/How I Met Your Mother
Prison Break
Wife Swap

Monday 9pm

I'm in the Thursday at 8:00 camp with others.

Now that Law and Order is gone from Wednesdays, that cleared up.

I guess, this could be an issue for me, if you add in that one new show w/ Matthew Perry. I think until the OTA tuners get activated on the new DirecTV HDDVR, it will be an issue.
